Some asshats decided to go all Fast and the Furious on a residential street, and now a young boy is dead because of it.

What neighbors said was a drag race along a residential street in Queens turned deadly early yesterday when one of the speeding cars hit a sport utility vehicle, throwing a 5-year-old boy from the backseat and killing him one block from his home, police said.

Police last night were looking for two men who fled on foot after crashing a blue BMW at 164th Place and 109th Avenue in Jamaica. Police said the BMW 540 was bought under the name of Hendry James. Police said James is not a suspect and has reported his identity stolen.

The BMW was speeding east on 109th Avenue when the car struck the SUV carrying the boy, Jordan McLean, his mother, Marcia McEachron, 44, and his aunt, Claris Edwards, 50, of Far Rockaway, shortly after midnight, police said. Jordan was in the back passenger seat, and was not strapped into a car seat or wearing a seat belt, police said.
